Taylor Swift turns into a psycho girlfriend in new video 'Blank Space'

Taylor Swift’s latest video Blank Space  shows her in a new, crazy avatar. The video was leaked by Yahoo and Vevo on Monday, however, it was removed later. Swift then released the video on her official channel and the internet has been awash with non stop screenshots, gifs and comments on the second single from her album 1989 which has already sold over 1.287 million copies. The video starts off in a typical Taylor Swift fashion with breakfast in bed with white horses, a handsome man on her arm, riding bicycles in the living room, picnicing in the garden with champagne and sweetheart candy takes a turn for the worse when she finds her beau on his phone during their date. She tells him, “darling I’m a nightmare dressed as a daydream.” She then proceeds to play out every single horrible girlfriend stereotype. She gets jealous and drops a phone in the pool, wrecks his car with a golf club, sets his clothes on fire, paints his portrait and then takes a knife to it. She also stands on a horse and then takes a butcher’s knife to a cake in bed.

And has even been on the recieving end of jokes at the 2013 Golden Globe awards by hosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. The video is directed by Joseph Kahn. Kahn is the same guy behind Britney Spears’s Toxic video, Maroon 5’s Misery and has directed Madonna, Rihanna, Lady Gaga and Janet Jackson to name a few. Her eye candy co-star in the video is none other than 2013’s highest paid male supermodel and Vogue magazine’s top five male models of all time Sean O’Pry, who coincidentally like Taylor is also born in 1989. In an interview with Vanity Fair, he talks about how Taylor Swift made him blush on the set and her complete professionalism during the last scene where she bites his lip. He also auditioned  for the role of Christian Grey in 50 Shades of Grey but lost out to Jamie Dornan. Little did he know he would be in Taylor Swifts’s 50 shades-esque video. Taylor Swift also brings in a lot of present day references in her video. The scene of her crazily destroying Sean’s car is very similar to the Tiger Woods’ 2009 cheating scandal where wife Elin Nordegren ran after him with a golf club. She also has a Mean Girl’s reference where she cuts up her beau shirt at the nipples. If you haven’t seen it yet you should watch it now:
